It's been almost a year since we released Pocket ID. We've received lots of feedback and great feature suggestions from you. Starting with v1.5.0 Pocket ID now supports the most requested feature: user signups.
If you don't know Pocket ID, let me quickly explain you what Pocket ID is. Pocket ID is a simple OIDC provider that lets users log into your services using passkeys. It's built specifically for homelabs because it's much easier to set up than other options like Authentik, which can be complicated and often too much for a homelab setup.
Three Signup Options
You can now choose from three different signup methods:
- Disabled - The default option. Only admins can manually create users.
- Signup tokens - Admins can create signup links to send to users for registration. This can be useful if you want to invite your friends or family to your homelab services.
- Open signup - Anyone can sign up without restrictions. This is useful if you want to use Pocket ID for authentication on your app or website.
This feature took longer to build because we wanted to get the signup workflow just right. We think the current solution works well for most users.
If you haven't tried Pocket ID yet, I really recommend checking out our demo. Have feature suggestions? Feel free to create a feature request on GitHub :)
